Specializes in

Anxiety, Depression, and Stress

Great to meet you!

If you're struggling with overwhelming anxiety, constant worry, overthinking or finding it difficult to express yourself, you are not alone. Having personally navigated anxiety and panic attacks, I understand the challenges you're facing from a deeply personal perspective. This fuels my passion for helping others find relief and healing. I specialize working with teens (16+) and adults, particularly those dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress/burnout, relationship challenges, people-pleasing behaviors, and communication challenges.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide a holistic, personalized approach to therapy that combines evidence-based techniques with a compassionate, client-centered framework. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a humanistic perspective, allowing us to address both practical and emotional aspects of your challenges.

What you can expect from our first session

You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space where we will collaborate to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Our work together will help you develop coping strategies, gain insight into patterns, and make positive, lasting changes. I tailor the pace and approach of therapy to fit your unique needs and goals. In our first session, we will review essential information. I'll ask questions to understand your mental health history, current challenges, and what you're hoping to achieve. I understand that sharing personal information can be nerve-wracking, so feel free to share at your own pace - whether that's a lot or a little. The goal is for you to feel comfortable and understood.
